How to run a sudo privilege command on start up in OSX

I have a python script which I'd like to run every time my machine boots. It requires sudo however. What's a simple solution to make my python script with sudo on startup?

You can use launchd.

launchd -- System wide and per-user daemon/agent manager

Add your property list file to the /Library/LaunchDaemons directory.

Have a look at Technical Note TN2083 Daemons and Agents

For non-privileged startup scripts simply add your single line command to /etc/rc.local for commands that require sudo add it to /etc/rc.common.
